Re: Prices said by gaforces:Those prices are outrageous, I never used more than $50.00 in minutes when I had v wireless. $150.00 for data inclusion? Ridiculous. And what's this $170.00 for international data? They are going to restrict the $150.00 plan to US only? Insert joke here. Just because YOU didn't use more than $50 in minutes doesn't mean other people don't. Maybe you should get more friends. 
$150 for unlimited minutes and an unlimited data plan is not bad at all. The unlimited data plan is already $44.99/month. So you're getting unlimited minutes and unlimited data.
My old 1400 minute family plan with one unlimited data plan was ~$175/month.
The laughable part is the family plans. Might as well get 3 separate plans, there's no incentive to bundle all your phones because they are just charging $100/phone anyway. |

I think I lost most RL friends during the dial-up years, my phone was always busy busy busy.

Umm, don't you even READ DSL reports? There is no 'unlimited data plan'. It's 44.99 for 5GB a month.
How much you want to bet their 'unlimited' data plan has so many restrictions, it's not worth it.
I mean, If I could get TRULY unlimited EDVO (call it 600Kb/sec), that's not a 'bad' price, if your only other option was satellite internet. That's about 180 GB per month for $170.00. Compare that to a satellite, which is about 13GB/month for $99.00, That's pretty much a no brainer, Verizon wins hands down.
However, since Verizon doesn't know the meaning of the word "unlimited", I suspect you will see a 5 or 10GB total bandwidth limit on their plans.

The only time we call is when you have to say something too complex for a text message. Even my parents have hopped on the bandwagon and text my sister and I if they need to tell us something. All my communications for work are done via email. I think the only time I got a call from them was when they told me to come in for the interview. I rarely use more than 100 or so minutes a month these days. |

I abhor it. It takes ot long to communicate. especially on my end. It takes me forever just to type in a few words. And god forbid I mess it up then it takes a REAL long time. Even using IM on a computer where I can at least use a keyboard is too slow for me. And I type pretty fast. I prefer the instantaneous communication of speech. |
